A benefits fraudster who claimed he was bed-ridden yet was filmed dancing at a wedding has been jailed.

Mohammed Bouzalim, 37, cheated the authorities out of nearly £400,000, Isleworth Crown Court heard.

He will serve nearly seven years for 11 counts of deception, fraud and assisting illegal entry into the UK.

The court heard he had also falsely claimed asylum saying he was an Afghan who had been tortured by the Taliban when in fact he was from Morocco.

And it's not from the daily mail
